I have had a look at the differences, and the only things I can see are
some POWER4 additions, and improving the process for opening the
displays in check_display.

When I boot, the prom_init output scrolls past pretty fast, and I think
I just see one display get opened before the LCD gets reset to a
different graphics mode.

My device-tree has a parent node ATY,[EMAIL PROTECTED]  with 2 children
displays: ATY,RageM3p12A and ATY,RageM3p12B
A is LCD and B is the CRT.

Would a hack workaround be to change the sorting of display nodes so
that the CRT is opened first?

Also, is there a safe way to put a pause in before opening the displays
in prom_init to review the displays found in the first part of
check_displays?

I haven't looked through the aty128fb driver yet, but what is involved
in fixing up dualhead there?
